Correct, you have to use the old address for a while:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~rebchess
as I am planning to add some pearl-scripts like WWW-board.

I would prefer a 6 game match at 40/2:00. This is not possible for
financial reasons. Maybe next year when everybody buys TWO copies
of Rebel :)

So this is the best I could get:
- 4 blitz games at 5:00
- 2 semi blitz games 15:00
- 2 tournament games 40/1:20 (1:00 for the rest)

The winner is of course who gets the most points out of the 8 games.
No doubt that the 2 tournament games are much more important then the
blitz games.
